The 2025 Gulf Stream Trailmaster 248BH is a popular, lightweight, and economical travel trailer designed specifically as a family-friendly bunkhouse model. It is often cross-listed or shares specifications with the Gulf Stream Ameri-Lite Ultra Lite 248BH and Kingsport Ultra Lite 248BH, as these models frequently use the same foundational floorplan and specs.
